Today I speak about several themes that have arisen over the past 29 weeks. And, also advise that I am taking a break from the weekly schedule. I will return to taping the podcast in October and releasing episodes starting in November.

When I return, I am going to add my own voice and cover topcis and issues in more depth. I hope you enjoy today's episode and will pick up again in the fall when I resume with regular episodes.

Tyler and his family run a grain farm on the border between Alberta and Saskatchewan. They are transitioning from a high input level of farming into regenerative farming practices. He speaks about the difficulties and reasons for making the shift. He also elaborates on the ways in which city-folks and those not involved in agriculture can help our farmers navigate the transition. One solution does not fit all!

Tyler is also known as The Crackpot Farmer. And, was one of the people who went to Ottawa to protest the restrictions the Canadian government placed on the country. It is interesting to the the first hand account of what was taking place and his experiences of being in the midst of the protest. He laments the fact that the mainstream media's misreporting of the events that took place. And also how heartening it was to be part of a movement that managed to avoid resorting to violence to make its point despite nearly a four week occupancy.
